Roger Federer is probably the most representative player of the Laver Cup (and a co-founder), and he will try to do everything he can to keep the trophy on the European side.

Team Europe is currently leading 7-5, and they need to win at least 2 matches (of 4) on the last day. For this reason, Roger Federer has decided to play twice and back to back in the morning session.

The world no.2 will side against Sascha Zverev in doubles against John Isner and Jack Sock before facing Isner (again) in singles. If he wins both doubles and singles he will secure the win for his team.

Roger has already impressed in singles after he breezed past Nick Kyrgios in day 2 (6-3 6-2).
